Zhang Provincial Governor sent Jiang Tingyun out of the door, and said, “Since Sir is leaving, I can’t keep it, so I have to come to thank you in the future.”

“It’s easy to say.”

Jiang Tingyun cupped the hands to him, and said: “Gong Zhang stays and sends it here.”

Zhang Provincial Governor did not force it. He was nodded, watching him encourage Zhang Wenruo to say a few words, and then slowly went away.

When he was about to disappear, Zhang Provincial Governor murmured: “It’s a pity…”

“What a pity?”

Zhang Wenruo asked from the side.

“Nothing.”

Zhang Provincial Governor smiled and shook the head.

Actually, when he saw Jiang Tingyun’s swordsmanship at first, he had the idea of ​​recruiting Jiang Tingyun as his son-in-law.

With this kind of swordsmanship, if you go to battle to kill the enemy, why worry about your military merits?

It’s a pity that this and the others, to his daughter, is really just a master and disciple affection, which really disappointed him.

Furthermore, in the intermittent small talk over the past year, he also slowly realized that this Mister Jiang did not seem to have any thoughts of going to battle to kill the enemy, but just wanted to be a dashing sword in the world. .

So, what a pity!

He shook the head, took back the divergent thoughts, looked towards his daughter, and said seriously: “I will deal with the kidnapping this time. You don’t have to worry too much.”

“Yes.”

Zhang Wenruo whispered.

Zhang Provincial Governor thought for a while, and then said: “This time you return to Beijing, you are about to make an appointment with someone. Are you reluctant to give up?”

“No.”

p>

Zhang Wenruo shook the head.

Zhang Provincial Governor looked at her for a long time before he nodded and said: “That’s good.”

The reason why he was so anxious to marry his daughter out was indeed Jiang Tingyun. For the sake of.

Jiang Tingyun is only a master and disciple for his daughter, but his daughter doesn’t seem to think so.

He vaguely feels that his daughter’s heart is gradually deviating, so he must be stopped.

But in fact, it was he who wanted to make a difference. Zhang Wenruo did slowly think of something else, but it was not a relationship between men and women…

At this moment, Zhang Wenruo So he lifts the head to look at him, and quietly thinks, Sir Father, if you ask me if I can’t give up, what will happen if I answer yes?

That’s all that will only be scolded by you.

Sir Father is such a person.

He seemed to be quite tolerant of her and gave her the right to choose, but that’s all that’s the right to choose. In the end, when making a decision, her choice can be made. It’s hard to say how much it works.

In some particularly important matters, such as his daughter’s marriage, he will not make any concessions.

For this, she understood it at a very young age, so she has been working hard to be a good girl-when resistance is useless, then adaptation is a kind of wisdom.

“You go back first.”

Zhang Provincial Governor said.

“Yes.”

Zhang Wenruo agreed, then turned and left.

“Wait a minute!”

But at this time, Zhang Provincial Governor suddenly remembered something, opened the mouth and said.

“What’s wrong? Sir Father.”

Zhang Wenruo looked back at him.

“Um…”

Zhang Provincial Governor hesitated for a moment, and then said: “How is your sword…How is your practice?”

Zhang Wenruo blinked his eyes: “Ashamed, I disappointed the Master in swordsmanship, and I… haven’t even gotten started yet.”

“This way…”

Zhang Provincial Governor showed a strange expression, in which there was disappointment and some meaning of “as expected.”

As for why he was disappointed, it’s easy to understand. As for “it really is so”… What he thinks is that a daughter’s family would not be able to achieve something in swordsmanship. Therefore, there will be This result is also very normal.

“Nothing.”

Zhang Provincial Governor shook the head, said with a smile: “Then you go back.”

“Hmm.”

p>

Zhang Wenruo lightly agreed.

……

Soon, the New Year will come.

In the New Year of the Tang Dynasty, there has been a tradition of firing firecrackers. Moreover, the “firecrackers” of Tang Dynasty are firecrackers in the true sense, that is, the gunpowder is stuffed into the bamboo joints and sent out after burning.” Pa” sound.

Furthermore, the Tang Dynasty also had the ceremony of “drive out the stalls”.

Battallion is led by a man and a woman, wearing the masks of “Tan Weng” and “Tan Mother”, and singing while walking.

Behind them, there were hundreds of boys wearing child masks to protect the children.

There are also many people wearing demon masks around them, who are regarded as villains.

There are many more people playing flute and drums for the band.

From time to time, they threw some firecrackers out and made a “pa pa pa” sound.

“Battallion” walked and sang like this, and the citizens on both sides of the street cheered again and again, with rare joy on their faces.

This morning, Jiang Tingyun saw all this in front of him on the way to Li Bai’s house.

“…The Zhang Family youngster is mobile, so that the demon ghost said: “Can you fight with me in the pond?… The demon is frightened, and wants to climb ashore with a plop, but it’s a pity that the weeds are unforgiving.” ……”

Jiang Tingyun listened carefully to what they sang, only vaguely distinguishing that they were telling the story of how humans defeated demons with wisdom—their tones are really strange.

When Jiang Tingyun rushed to the small courtyard of Li Bai’s house, as expected, many people were already there.

“Brother Jiang, you finally came.”

“Brother Jiang, if you don’t come again, I will go to you!”

Jiang Of course Tingyun responded with a smile one after another.

“What are you doing?”

He leaned over and asked.

“Writing the couplet, do you want to write one too.”

Xiao Yi turned around and handed him the brush said with a smile.

Jiang Tingyun slightly startled, and then took the brush over, said with a smile: “Okay.”

“Please.”

Xiaoyi Give him a place.

He stood at the table and thought for a while, and wrote: “The things of last year go with the wind, and the worries of the coming year will be in the glass of wine.”

Today is the New Year after all, so It’s better to be festive.

Xiao Yi said startledly: “Brother Jiang, today is the New Year, how can you write this couplet?”

“What happened to this couplet?”

“Um…not festive enough.”

Xiao Yi touched the chin said.

“Is this not festive enough?”

Jiang Tingyun hearing this startled.

“You get out of the way and watch me come!”

Xiaoyi said with a smile.

Next, he took Jiang Tingyun’s brush and wrote on another piece of paper: “Last year was a lot of trouble, this year I have no worries.”

He looked back. said with a smile: “How about it, happy?”

Jiang Tingyun also smiled: “It’s really happy.”

After that, they drank Tusu wine together.

Today, it has been a while since Li Bai recovered from his illness. Therefore, Li Bai has no scruples anymore and can’t stop drinking it.

Fortunately, today is New Year’s Eve. It was originally intended to eat and drinking merrily, so no one cares about that.

A group of people in Li Bai’s yard, drinking from day to night, from drunk to drunk, and from drunk to awake, and finally, even with Jiang Tingyun’s physique, they have some sleepiness. Yi, he fell asleep with his pillow on the wine jar.

2nd day, when he woke up, he saw that everyone had gotten up and was busy working in the yard.

“One, two, three! Good!”

Everyone shouted.

He was a little curious, so he sat up, yawned first, and then walked over and asked: “What are you doing?”

Brother Chen turned around and said with a smile: “We are standing up the banner, you are late!”

The banner?

Jiang Tingyun slightly startled, and I saw them surrounded by a bamboo pole, which was erected in the yard.

He raised his head and looked up, and saw that the bamboo pole was very long and very long, and he couldn’t see his head at once.

When he finally saw the end of the bamboo pole, he saw that a long multi-colored cloth was tied to the end of the bamboo pole and was waving in the cold wind.

Jiang Tingyun looked at the piece of cloth and was stunned for a while. After he came back to his senses, he said with a smile a little embarrassed: “My hometown doesn’t have this custom, so it’s a little bit embarrassing. Somewhat surprised.”

“So…I heard that you are not from Yang Province, so I don’t know that this custom is also normal, right?”

“… By the way, this What’s the meaning of custom? For example, it is entrusted with good wishes for the coming year and so on?”

“Huh?”

The man smiled: “I don’t know. , I just stand it up for fun.”

“That’s it… so too.”

Jiang Tingyun also laughed.

……

When he returned to his door, he found that Zhang Provincial Governor had been waiting for a long time.

He slightly startled, and then hurriedly stepped forward and said: “Gong Zhang, I’m sorry, I was not at home before…”

“It’s not a problem, I just came.”

Zhang Provincial Governor shook the head, said with a smile.

After that, he pretended to be servants to lift the box on the carriage down one by one.

“These are…”

“Some small thank-you gifts are not respectful.”

Zhang Provincial Governor immediately said: “With Mr. to me Compared with the help from nine oxen, these are just one hair from nine oxen that’s all.”

For this, Jiang Tingyun had no choice but to default.

He can’t say that your daughter’s life is actually not worth so much money, right?

So, he opened the door with the key and asked them to carry the box in.

Zhang Provincial Governor followed in and instructed them to put the boxes away. At the invitation of Jiang Tingyun, he sat down at the table.

“I don’t have any good tea here, so it’s rude.”

Jiang Tingyun said while making tea for him.

“It’s not in the way.”

Zhang Provincial Governor said with a smile: “I don’t have high demands on this thing about tea… To be honest, I can’t taste those things. What is the difference between the so-called famous tea and ordinary tea.”

“Really?”

Jiang Tingyun glanced at him, not sure if this is the truth, or just a polite .

The two drank a cup of tea together, and Zhang Provincial Governor suddenly said: “Sir, I heard the little girl say that you are leaving Yang Province?”

Jiang Tingyun startled , And then nodded: “Yes, what’s the matter?”

What he thought in his heart was, is it coming?

The original intention of Zhang Provincial Governor to visit.

Zhang Provincial Governor asked again: “I don’t know, you can think about where you are going?”

Jiang Tingyun shook the head: “Not yet.”

So, Zhang Provincial Governor hesitated for a while, and then said: “I just heard that Saint imperial decree’there are civil and military talents, you can go to the Imperial Court to recommend yourself’, Mr. If he goes to the capital, he will be able to name the capital! On the contrary, if Mr. Ruo insists not to go, he would rather hide his name among the pawns of the husband, not like the dust of the pearl?”
